How You Pocket the Profits.

When you buy ready made cloth
ing you have to pay a profit to the
wholesaler and a profit to the re-
taller. These two profits the retail
buyer pays, and these make the price
come high. Now contrast the diff
ferent system at the MIsFIT PAR
LoRs. Instead Of paying either a
Wholesale or retail profit, you really
pocket what the tailors lose. We
don't pay full value FOR any of our
goods. We frequently pick them up
at less than one-half their original
value. The tsilors have to part with
them for what they can get, and thus
we are able to offer you the best
tailor made clething far lower than
you can buy ready-made.

Last week Mr.. Sever left for Virginia saying
that he would not return to Mount Holly. He
feels the disgrace very keenly. Yesterday Mrs.
Isaiah Sever aunt of the young woman,
swore out warrant before Justice Coley for
Sutton's arrest: He is now in Jail. The feeling
against him is very bitter. It is said he has a
wife in Philadelphia.
